Witnessing Wānaka’s beauty from a bike. - This ride was outrageously beautiful. The track/bike trail was safe and the bikes were comfortable and powerful enough to get up the few hills we encountered.

Breathtaking Wanaka! - We had an absolutely incredible experience on the Wanaka and Hawea Trails with NZ Bike Trails. James, our guide, was fantastic—he shared so many interesting facts and gave clear, helpful instructions as we drove to the drop-off point. We will definitely be recommending this tour to our family and friends. Steven & Karen

Best experience! - All credits to David and James for making our bicycle ride around Lake Wanaka an incredible experience. They are so well organized, punctual and the material they offer is great. Also they give proper and detailed information, so you can't go wrong. I would like to mention a special thanks to them as they took amazing care of the bicycle ride of my husband as he is a diabetic. They monitored him all the time if he was okay. We even saw David during our trip on his bike as he was checking if my husband was okay. They gave all the information where to stop to have a rest and have some lunch and snacks. There was no rush and therefore we had an amazing ride cycling around Lake Wanaka. We both definitely recommend their company and service. Thank you so much David and James for this experience. We think you two are the best!

Fun, scenic and active all in one! - I couldn't be happier with our experience today with David and NZbike trails. I called at 1.30pm after a sleep in and deciding we wanted to get a shuttle to Hawea to ride bikes back. No one would take us as it was afternoon but David was at our place in 20 mins with ebikes ready to drive us to Hawea!. The bikes were superb quality and very comfortable with the suspension on the seats. The trail is gorgeous and we stopped many times for photos and also half way at Albertown for a late lunch at The Albie. David's instructions were priceless and his love of riding and care for his customers is obvious. We wanted to actually exercise so we rode in 'Eco' mode the whole way except for a couple of hills and we felt like we had a good workout. The trail is harder than I expected- not just a bitumen path. It is actually like mountain biking but without the big hills. I would suggest that it is fun for active/adventurous people but might be hard for the elderly, inactive or nervous bike riders. A great activity not to be missed!

Great bike ride - We had a great ride. The pick up and drop off were easy and James made the trip informative and entertaining. It was a beautiful day and the trail is fantastic, with some great views. A compulsory stop for a salted caramel doughnut at the Pembroke Patisserie and a ride around the Wanaka foreshore rounded out the day. Definitely recommended.

Spectacular way to see Wanaka and surrounds - My husband and I did this bike ride today. James collected us, and on the drive to the start location gave an insightful commentary on the area, and great instructions. The ebikes worked perfectly and make the ride comfortable. To say the views are spectacular is really an understatement. Being outdoors in such a magnificent location was awesome.
